Let me guess, and I'm taking a stab at it... you're one of the many pilots that got a call from a chief asking about a commuter miss... you, however, have had many commuter misses, and you're most recent one came because you were bumped by an Eagle employee. If you'd taken the time to read the Non-Rev Travel Guide, that's right there in PDF format for all of us to read, you would've known what Eagle employees can get priority over Mainline pilots.
What you consider getting walked over by Eagle, and battered wife syndromes, the rest of us probably consider "picking our battles".
